The Music That I Like

Music is the best way to start the day and do end it. Music is very important to me, it’s a great company in every moment of my life. It can make me feel happy, sad, nostalgic, angry, any possible emotion according to the day and the mood. I like all kinds of music, but especially rock and alternative rock music. 

I love The Strokes, and Arctic Monkeys, Depeche Mode, Blur, The Doors, The Beatles, The Smiths, and I could go on and on. I also like latin rock music, like Charly García, Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, Los Rodriguez, and Chilean music, which I think it’s very good, and Chilean people should listen to it more often, instead of hearing the typical radio songs. I also enjoys the oldies, like Louis Armstrong or Elvis Presley. 

The way that I used to listen to music is by downloads on the internet. I don’t listen to radio, because I have mi mp3 with all the music that I like and I used on the bus, in my house, in the streets, anywhere. I would to play the guitar, I’m trying to learn since o most four years and I always abandon.

Maradona Alone Against The World

Today i am going to write about a picture of the best football player in history of this beautiful sport: Diego Armando Maradona

This photo was taken during a match between Argentina and Belgium during the soccer world cup 1982. The image shows Maradona dominating the ball faced against Belgian team. The image is very expressive of the ability of this legendary footballer and shows how Diego Maradona" is confronted by a posse of defenders Belgium during the soccer World Cup held in Spain. 

The photo was taken by steve powell, a journalist from the agency "all sports". I like this photograph because shows very good the respect felt by opposing players by the ability of Argentine football player, as in soccer is very difficult to see 6 players guarding one opponent at a time. On the other hand, shows how Maradona used his left foot to control the ball flawlessly.

Charles Bukowski

Today i'm going to write about one of my favorite writes, the american poet and novelist Charles Bukowski.
 
He was born in Germany, but lived most of his life in the City of Los Angeles, USA. He wrote from very young, however, did not make a living out of writing to his maturity, working for more than fifteen years in postal office. Their literature addresses issues associated to the regular life of U.S. poor class, marginality, sex, alcoholism and monotony of life of the working class. For this reason his writings were listed in the current of "dirty realism"

Bukowski published extensively in small literary magazines and with small presses beginning in the early 1940 and continuing on through the year 1990. Some of these works include his poems "written before jumping out", published by his friend and fellow poet Charles Potts.
